Nelson Dual Outlet Electric Water Timer — Multicolor LCD, Two-Zone Programmable with Rain Delay

The Nelson Dual Outlet Electric Water Timer is a two-valve programmable irrigation controller with a large multicolor LCD and rain-delay to manage two separate watering zones effortlessly.

Designed to simplify outdoor watering, this electric timer combines a bright, easy-to-read display with independent scheduling for two outlets. The angled valve ports reduce hose interference and protect your knuckles when attaching multiple hoses. Use the rain delay to pause your schedule for up to seven days and avoid unnecessary water use during wet weather.

How do I set and read the schedules on the large LCD?

The large multicolor LCD shows active programs, remaining run time and status at a glance, and setup uses simple controls so you can program start times and durations quickly. A manual on/off button lets you trigger immediate watering without altering scheduled programs.

• Large multicolor LCD for clear program feedback at any angle
• Intuitive controls: set start times, run durations and repeat intervals
• Manual on/off button for instant watering without reprogramming

Can I water two different areas independently?

Yes — the dual outlets operate as separate zones so each hose can run a unique schedule. This lets you tailor frequency and run times to different plants, lawn areas or containers without needing a separate controller for each hose.

• Two independent valves with individual programming
• Run different durations and intervals for zone-specific needs
• Angled valve design simplifies connecting multiple hoses

What does the rain delay do and how long can I pause watering?

Rain delay temporarily suspends automatic watering to prevent unnecessary irrigation after rainfall or during wet conditions. You can pause scheduled cycles for up to seven days and then resume the original program automatically, helping conserve water.

• Pause automatic schedules for 1–7 days
• Automatically resumes programmed schedule after delay ends
• Reduces wasted water and avoids over-watering post-rain

Is the unit easy to install and built for frequent use?

Installation is straightforward: screw the metal swivel coupling to an outdoor faucet and attach hoses to the angled outlets. The metal swivel coupling with an ergonomic grip ensures a secure, leak-resistant connection and comfortable handling during repeated use.

• Metal swivel coupling with ergonomic grip for secure attachment
• Angled outlets protect knuckles and make multi-hose connections easier
• Durable construction suited for regular seasonal operation

Who is this for: The Nelson Dual Outlet Electric Water Timer is ideal for homeowners and gardeners who run two hoses or zones and want reliable, easy-to-read programming without a complex irrigation system. It suits front-yard and backyard setups, container gardens, vegetable beds, and anyone who wants simple water-savings features like rain delay and manual override.
